Be sure to read this manual thoroughly before using your Dot Watch!
As the Dot cells are entirely of a different nature, it does require a certain level of a learning curve to
grow comfortable with using the Dot Watch.
- The user input (e.g. pressing the buttons) and the actual user reading should be offset by about one
second.
- Please note that, there can't be any pressure and/or blocked cells by fingers and/or foreign objects
by the time the pins are trying to display, following input command.
- The user is responsible for understanding the above information, as incorrect displaying due to user
error does not equate to a defective device.
- If your device unpairs from your smartphone due to any reasons (proximity, obstacles, powering
off/on, etc.), refer to the steps in “Bluetooth Connection Status Menu” section to resume connection
trials.
- To pair the Dot Watch with a new smartphone, the Bluetooth information stored in both the previous
smartphone and the Dot Watch needs to be reset. Refer to the steps in “Connecting the Dot Watch to
a New Smartphone” section to pair with the new smartphone.
This User's Guide is based on the default settings of the device. The contents of this manual may
differ from the actual experience depending on the software version of the device, telecommunication
service, model specifications, and the user's settings. The device is not supported on Tablet PCs such
as iPad or Galaxy Tab.
1. Before Using Your Dot Watch
Dot Watch is a smart watch that connects to the user's smartphone via Dot Watch App and outputs all
information in braille. Although Dot Watch can be operated as a standalone analog watch, the Dot
Watch App and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) connection is recommended. iOS 9 or its later versions
and Android 4.4.4 or a later version is required to run the Dot WatchApp.
With the Dot Watch you can:
1) Check the time and date
2) Use the stopwatch
3) Use the timer
4) Check the notification messages on your smartphone
5) Save and store important notification messages in your Dot Watch App
6) Locate your smartphone
7) Set the alarm using the Dot Watch App
8) Use all the features that the Dot Watch App provides, and even learn the Braille
9) Count the number of pins to tell the time by using the “Tactile Mode”

[Name and Function of Parts]
The body of Dot Watch is round in shape. The front of the body is called “Dot Watch Screen”. There
are total 4 dot cells on the screen; a vertical line at center divides the 2 cells on the left, and the other
2 on the right. Each cell represents one character; therefore, up to 4 characters can be displayed at a
time. Below the cells are left and right “Touch Sensors”. The “Dot Crown” is located on the right of the
center of the body. The "Select Button" is located above Dot Crown, and the "Home Button" is located
below Dot Crown.

2. Wearing the Dot Watch
Put the band around your wrist, and adjust it by pulling it to a comfortable level. If the band slips out
from the metal loop, put the magnetic end of the band through the loop and adjust to fit. Be warned
that pulling the band excessively may separate the band from the watch and/or cause damage to the
band itself.
